hi guys, first and foremost: thank you for the community feel of this place. Whenever, i come back, it never feels like. So here is m problem: i am trying to implement a carousel effect on a web page, i think(?) i am getting the code right, but the effect isn't just happening. Here is my script.js code

My favorite case of character insertion was when using the console to debug PubNub functions. URL encoded strings were logging as plain text so I spent hours thinking the error in my code was related to that instead of my API config

@RoniqueRicketts Ah, of course. I bought some bitcoin..now just seeing what it does (I bought an initial $25 at 15.8 then it dropped a bunch so I bought another $25 at 11.2 which shoould get me back to my initial investment at some point :joy: )

@JLuboff What do you think about the react course that's offering on udacity where they place us in a job?Re: prev message. you will have to sigin up on a exchange market like binance or hitbtc then use the deposit option in the exchange tool and you will get an address to send the funds. You can then send the coin from your wallet to the exchange tool.

@kbaig Fuck. I think I found out my issue.. I was using a .NET method .ExecuteNonQuery which returns the number of row's affected.. well its meant to be used only with DML statements.. hence why it wasn't working for me with a Select statement :neutral_face:

@JLuboff smart contracts can be used to put things we would put in a normal contract on the blockchain, making it verifiable by anyone. You can also program in the terms (i.e. when such a thing happens, a payment is done, etc.).

@RoniqueRicketts I did a fantastic course on React on Udemy (as well, actually by the same guy - Stephen Grider - who does the Solidity course), learned a ton and if you code along you'll definitely pick up a lot of skills.

Of course, it is not as extensive as the nanodegree, but I don't really know what more there is to learn except dive deep into the source code.... and together with a couple other courses I consider myself pretty proficient in React. It all depends on building some projects using React.

For work I'm doing AngularJS now, in combination with Redux, but we may switch to React or Vue later this year, depending on how well Angular JS will maintain when we start scaling.

@Blauelf I do remember that, it was because of a bug in a single smart contract which was created by a DAO (which called itself 'the DAO'). It got a lot of traction early on, because it was the first of its kind, but because of the bug, there was a lot of money lost to a hacker. They forked to undo the hack, and everyone suddenly had Ether and Ether Classic (where classic is the continuation of the hacked branch). I understand why they chose to fork, because of the amount of people affected by it, but some purists claim this is not what blockchain is supposed to be like.

@Chrono79 Oh okay, that could make sence, I already thought that the keys of the properties in the cid array will be funny to deal with.I am not quite sure how to work with them as they seem to be words and not numbers. At least that is my initial thought at the beginning :)
